Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
9th Company: Roots of Terror is a video game based on actual events that took place during the Soviet military campaign in Afghanistan. It is a PC based game developed by Noviy Disk. 9th Company follows the story of young recruits undergoing brutal training in Uzbekistan's Fergana Valley and culminates with a bloody stand against the Mujahideen warriors on a mountain top in Afghanistan. It's the Battle of Thermopylae all over again: one Russian fighter against ten Afghans! 9th Company: Roots of Terror recreates in detail the events that took place during the last large-scale Soviet military operation.
